Chapter 241: Uninhabited Island (Gains are greater than losses)
Very good, because it is covered with a "cloth" woven by palmetto, plus surrounded on three sides,
And the cloth was covered with stones,
In the end, it was not blown over by the wind,
There wasn't much rain down there,
At least not over the coconut shells.
Carefully take out the coconut shell and remove the lid.
The soup was naturally cold, but now after yesterday's wind and rain, there are no dry dead branches and leaves.
It's impossible to eat hot.
I randomly found two branches, sharpened them with a knife, and a pair of chopsticks were freshly baked.
Take a bite directly,
Groove !!
It tastes amazing!
Bitter, sour, and salty exploded in the mouth at once.
Covering his mouth with his left hand, he forced himself to swallow.
Compared with replenishing energy to live,
Let's ignore whether it tastes good or not.
endured the nausea in his heart and ate a whole cup.
After eating,
Shi Liu would feel that there was nothing she couldn't eat anymore.
But even if it's something unpalatable,
into the belly,
Let the stomach no longer be hungry, not to mention that it is also converted into the energy needed by the human body,
That's fine.
So what's unpalatable is actually negligible,
After all, there is energy to have everything.
After eating, clean up the place where you live.
A little bit to clean up the past,
Maybe the fish will find the shoes that were blown away before.
Looking at the messy leaves and stumps that were blown, Shi Liu couldn't help frowning.
Fortunately, the small tree that was used as the beam of her nest was still there, and there were only some palm leaves.
It seems that she had to weave a larger "cloth" from palmetto leaves.
So that she can have a complete "house" to live in.
Now it's not even a tent.
Fortunately, she still has a full kettle of fresh water, which is still hot.
You can save a few days to drink.
After cleaning up for a while, Shi Liu suddenly thought of a serious problem,
The fruit on the tree can't all be blown away by the wind, right?
This question is very important, it is a matter of life and death!
Half of the packing, I ran to see the trees that were bearing fruit.
Overall looked around,
It's okay, it's okay,
It seems that these trees and fruits have adapted to the environment here.
Few were knocked down,
Most of them are still hanging on the trees.
The fruit is fine, and Shiliu is relieved.
You must know that even if you can save it after taking it off, it will only take ten days and half a month at most.
It's not the same when it grows on a tree.
The most convenient and trouble-free way to preserve freshness is to let the fruit continue to grow on the tree.
I also have to worry about being eaten by small animals and birds.
Because those things don't exist at all.
If only there were small animals, birds, or something.
The ingredients of stone willow can also be enriched.
It seems that there is a problem with the previous thinking, so I should first find the fish and sneakers that were dried yesterday before talking about anything else.
I picked up three fish and washed them again with seawater.
It is then torn into strips from palm fronds and used as a rope to string the fish's heads and hang them from the tops of bread trees.
If this time there is another strong wind and it is blown away,
It can be blown into the sea.
However, Shi Liu felt that he had just experienced a storm and would definitely be able to live a peaceful life for a few days.
It must be hanging high, and it dries faster under the wind and sun.
When I came down, I brought a breadfruit with me.
On the way back, I picked up a sneaker.
Hopefully the other one is also on the island, so you can always find it.
At this time, it is unrealistic to bake and eat fluffy breadfruit again.
So Shi Liu directly put the fruit and one of the shoes he found in the original nest.
Now Shiliu is like a lion patrolling his territory.
I don't want to let go of every inch.
In the reef at the southern end of the island, Shi Liu finally found her other sneaker.
It's nice to have everything back.
On this side, where the southeast reef meets the beach, there are several clearings that are higher than the other.
After the sea receded, under the sun's rays, Shi Liu felt that there was something shiny hanging on it.
Holding a shoe in one hand, he carefully climbed up and looked at it, and stretched out his tongue to taste it.
Salty.
So
Is this kosher salt?
Even if it's coarse salt, then what, coarse salt is not salt!
Happiness came too suddenly, and Shi Liu said that he was a little caught off guard, and he didn't know what to do all of a sudden.
I also passed by here not once or twice,
I didn't expect to be directly ignored by her before.
If she hadn't looked carefully every inch this time, maybe she would still have missed it.
Thinking about it like this, Shi Liu felt grateful for the sudden storm.
But where should the salt be collected?
Maybe you can bring a piece of clothing to misfortune and sew it into a cloth bag, so that it will be fine with salt.
The question of how to get the needle and thread for sewing clothes is not too trivial.
After all, the rib veins of the palmetto leaf lobes can be used to make toothpicks, so there is really nothing wrong with making a hole as a needle.
Suddenly, I felt like I needed to do a lot of things urgently.
To weave cloth and build a solid nest that does not leak rain,
To sharpen the needle and make a cloth bag to collect salt,
If you want to exercise your physical skills, you can't stop,
If you want to catch food, you have to continue to learn to dive and swim.
If you want to find a way to reserve fresh water, don't go wrong every time you come to the wind and rain,
What is most urgently needed?
I took a short-sleeved shirt and used it to collect salt first.
Then drag the branches and leaves blown off by the wind to the north, and the nest is in the north corner.
With a sharp saber in hand, it is much easier to separate the palmetto leaves and palm leaves from the veins than with bare hands.
After that, Shiliu devoted himself to the great cause of weaving.
Eat breadfruit when you are hungry, and drink warm water in a kettle when you are thirsty.
After unremitting efforts, a mat was woven throughout the day.
For this result, Shiliu is quite satisfied.
It's definitely going to get faster and faster in the future.
In the evening, I went to the reef to find a few large oysters, dug them up and ate them raw.
For conch that can't be eaten raw, let's let you live a few more days.
Be sure to grow it soon.
On the northwest reef, several kelps were also found in Shiliu.
"It's a good thing, you can't miss it. The kelp washed up on the reef means that there is kelp in the surrounding sea. Look for it another day. ”
While talking to himself, he collected all the kelp.
Today's harvest is really good, but unfortunately even after a whole day of sun exposure, the ground is still not completely dry, and the "firewood" that has been collected has not been dried.
This is not good news, it means that you can't eat cooked food at night, not to mention, and you have to sleep in the wetland.
Of course, sleeping in a sleeping bag doesn't really make much of a difference.
It's just that there is a slight gap in my heart.
"I want to build myself a shelter from the elements,
You also have to build a place where you can store food.
Oh my God, it's such a broken island,
Where is there a place where you can safely store food without fear of storms? ”
Shi Liu couldn't help but wail.
